Quality Time With You
Mommy Darling, I miss simpler days. The fun we had in between bites of Friday night take out at the dining room table. I miss the taste of homemade ice cream, and microwaved popcorn while we watched rented VHS movies. I bet you never thought I'd miss cutting coupons at the kitchen table! Writing checks for the monthly bills, Bathroom chores on Saturday mornings, riding to the grocery store and filling up the cart... learning how to be an adult. I miss the aprons you sowed for us to use while baking and licking wooden spoons and metal bowls after pouring the cake batter into pans. The Sunday sound of the handheld mixer and watching the sweet mix drip into the bowl. I long for the warmth and smell of the Jiffy blueberry muffins or brownies baking in the oven. Takes me back and brings a smile to my cheeks, and it feels like memories full of peace and love. Do you miss simpler times... full of laughter, throwing confetti in the air...
